Just joined the forums, and I'm ready to get started. I just switched from the iPhone 3gs, to the Moto Droid. I loved jailbreaking, so I'm sure I'll love rooting... but it seems like the process is very different. Hopefully someone can just get me pointed in the right directions. I've been reading online through guides of how to gain root... here's what I've understood:
1. I'm running 2.1.1, so I need to downgrade to 2.0.1 using RSD Lite.
2. From there I need to root 2.0.1.
3. Then flash a ROM.
Hopefully there is no problem posting links on these forums, but these are the guides i'm following.

Root Motorola Droid on Android 2.0.1 | Redmond Pie
But I've noticed on almost every guide to root the 2.0.1 the second link is missing for the 2.0.1 OTA update. What do I do from there?
I'm also looking for a good ROM. I've only heard of Smoked Glass, and Bugless Beast. Any suggestions?
